Synopsis

A meticulously researched exposé that peels back the carefully constructed mythology surrounding L. Ron Hubbard, founder of Scientology, revealing the stark contrast between his claims of heroism and spiritual enlightenment and the documented reality of his life. Drawing from military records, court documents, and interviews with those who knew him, Russell Miller presents an unflinching portrait of a con man who transformed himself into the leader of a controversial religion. This unauthorized biography challenges the official Church narrative and offers readers an unvarnished look at one of the 20th century's most enigmatic and polarizing figures.
